Hikers Sign Up For JFK 50 Mile Trek In Maryland
Organizers anticipate a surge of applicants for the John F. Kennedy 50 mile hike on March 31 in Frederick and Washington Counties. Co organizer Guy Whidden says applications were placed at Shipley's stores and many were picked up within hours with mailouts to nonlocals and even England. Entry is three dollars this year, rising to six dollars if postmarked after March 21. The National Park Service continues repairs to the C and O Canal Towpath damaged by Tropical Storm Agnes. The course partly follows the towpath and about 2 000 hikers are expected, up from over 1 000 last year.
